Abstract (en)

A method for producing a patterned surface relief on a substrate, the method comprising the steps of depositing a curable resin on to the substrate; pressing the surface of a first shim in to the resin, the surface of the first shim having an inverse impression profile of a first surface relief; curing the resin within the region pressed by the first shim; and removing the first shim from the resin; wherein one or both of the depositing and curing steps are performed on a first selected area within the region pressed by the first shim such that the surface relief in the resin is formed only within the said first selected area of the said region.
